Practical teaching: Starting from the soul traveling through Dragon Garden

Chapter 442 Catching Ghosts
The team wasn't very enthusiastic about the third day of the competition. After all, most of the team members were from the Tokyo area and lacked knowledge about the geography and culture of Hokkaido. The school wanted to test the students' ability to gather and remember information in a short period of time.

If we only consider memory ability, Ayanokouji is undoubtedly the best in the group. However, since Ayanokouji has already participated in two competitions, he will not have the opportunity to play in the next competition.

"Huh, where did Ayanokouji go?"

The group members sat together to decide who would participate in the next match, but Kito noticed that Ayanokouji was not there.

“He no longer has a chance to play, so I allowed him to move around freely. As for where he went to play, I don’t really know.”

Longyuan picked up the teacup on the table; it contained barley tea prepared by the inn, and it tasted quite good.

"Well, so that means I can move around freely now!"

Yamamura suddenly realized that she had also appeared twice, which meant that she could move around freely. After saying that, Yamamura's eyes lit up.

"No."

Longyuan directly refused.

"Why, why can't I do it!"

Shancun was somewhat angry, but she didn't dare to be angry with Longyuan. She could only glare at Longyuan, but her tone was weak and harmless.

"Because you'll get me into trouble."

"Tch, that's a lame excuse. If you don't want to, then don't."

Yamamura herself knew very well that Ryuen would not allow her to move around freely; she had just held onto a sliver of hope, as girls are always a bit delusional.

Yamamura sat to the side. She couldn't participate, nor did she have the mind to offer suggestions or ideas. She wasn't even a mascot, so she was very depressed.

"Who among you is most interested in the Hokkaido quiz?"

Long Yuan asked a question, but everyone just looked at each other, clearly uninterested.

"Then I'll make the arrangements."

"Nishino, you and Kikyo will take the humanities exam this morning. Watanabe, you and Amakura will take the geography exam this afternoon."

The four nodded, having no objection to Longyuan's arrangements. To put it bluntly, everyone was well aware that these two exams were just for cannon fodder. The two exams they had already won were enough for them to secure a top-three finish, so it didn't matter if they completely faltered in the following exams. As for the reward for first place, they were only slightly tempted, but in reality, they had no interest in putting in much effort for it.

The list had been finalized, but at that moment, Ryuen's phone rang. It was a ringtone that Ryuen had specially set for Hime.

"Kansaki will participate in the Hokkaido cultural knowledge competition."

The message from Himeya forced Ryuen to change his mind at the last minute.

"Nishino, I'll take your place in the humanities knowledge competition."

"oh oh."

Nishino was a little confused. There were only ten minutes left before the competition started, and Ryuen was making a substitution at this time. Did he get the exam questions?
After all, Ryuen is a native of Tokyo, and Nishino doesn't believe that Ryuen knows much about the culture and culture of Hokkaido. If he did, he would have participated from the beginning instead of changing his mind at the last minute. Therefore, Nishino guesses that Ryuen obtained the test questions through some means and decided to participate in the competition at the last minute.

If that's the case, then the group will definitely win the championship, but in that case, the group will have a very high probability of taking first place, and Nishino will be in a precarious position.

Although I was panicking inside, I couldn't show it on my face: "Do we really have to change it?"

This statement was strange, and everyone's attention shifted to Nishino.

Kikyo asked directly, "Is Nishino-kun particularly interested in this exam?" "No, not at all."

Nishino waved his hand in refusal.

Long Yuan nodded: "Don't have any expectations of me. I just wanted to confirm a few things before I chose to participate."

The implication is that even if Longyuan participates, they will lose.

Nishino knew that Ryuen was saying this to him, so he silently moved aside.

Longyuan and Jiegeng went together, without any preparation.

"I heard that Horikita is cramming Hokkaido knowledge all night long. Why don't you let us cram a little at the last minute too?"

Kikyo walked beside Ryuen and asked a question.

"So do you think you can beat Horikita if I make you carry him?"

Kikyo's expression was somewhat unpleasant: "Although I don't want to admit it, there's a high probability that we can't win."

"Then there's absolutely no need to prepare, right? After all, even if you did prepare, it would all be in vain."

"Then we're not guaranteed to lose."

Kikyo looked quite disappointed.

"You're so eager to win? Why?"

Kikyo was surprised that Ryuen would ask this question. He was the team leader, and shouldn't the team leader's goal be first place? Shouldn't Ryuen's goal be first place as well?

In a short time, Kikyo concluded that Ryuen was a "demon," which was why he wanted to lose the humanities exam. The group absolutely could not get first place, otherwise Ryuen would be expelled.

"I didn't really want to win that much. It's just that yesterday I was laughing at Shancun for losing both of his matches, and today I did the same thing myself, so I feel really embarrassed."

Kikyo quickly waved her hand to show her attitude. Kikyo didn't want to provoke Ryuen's targeting. She had originally planned to guess a few more multiple-choice questions in this exam, but now Kikyo had decided to hand in a blank paper.

The chat didn't last long. After arriving at the exam venue, Ryuen immediately located Kanzaki, and the exam began quickly.

In the competition between the two children, Longyuan finished coloring in half an hour. To be precise, Longyuan didn't want to write anymore after five minutes, but in order to make it look more convincing, he stayed for half an hour before handing in his paper.

When handing in his paper, Ryuen deliberately took a detour past Kanzaki's seat and left a note.

After reading the note, Kanzaki handed in his paper and left the exam room.

However, Kanzaki couldn't find Ryuen anywhere after leaving the exam hall. Ryuen had clearly asked him to meet, but this was definitely a prank, and Kanzaki was furious! But there was nothing he could do.

What Ryuen wanted to confirm was already confirmed the moment Kanzaki handed in his paper, so there was no need to meet with Kanzaki again to say anything pointless.

The test paper prepared by the school has a lot of questions, including an essay question. If you work hard, even if you know a lot about Hokkaido, you can't finish it in less than an hour, not to mention that most people don't know much about the culture and history of Hokkaido.

As Ryuen passed Kanzaki's seat, he noticed that Kanzaki hadn't even finished half of his test paper. However, after seeing his own slip of paper, Kanzaki quickly handed in his paper. This meant that Kanzaki definitely hadn't finished the test. For a top student, having time to spare but handing in an unfinished test paper could only mean that he didn't intend to get a good grade.

The real "ghost" has been found.
